Results for Metro Series heat 1

The new 2020/2021 season kicked off on the 10th of October with Royal Perth Yacht Club‘s Opening Day, raced as Heat 1 of the Metro Series.

While some boats were unfortunately absent due to various mechanical annoyances and other issues, those of us who were lucky enough to be out enjoyed perfect summer conditions.

The slightly crowded river made for some interesting and challenging situations, however it was a fantastic turnout for RPYC with around 90 boats racing! Well done!

The Black Smoke showed the fleet the way, coming home first and fastest, Seahawk second and Frenzy third.

Thanks again to RPYC for hosting us.

Results for Metro Series heat 7

The Claremont Yacht Club hosted heat seven of our Farr 9.2 Metro Series on the 15th of March, as part of their Commodore’s Cup regatta. The course, established in 1905, had the fleet sailing two laps around Freshwater Bay, with shifty winds around the southern marks.

Lionheart made great use of those shifts, as well as some crafy spinnaker work to take first and fastest. This ends the six-heat trend of a separate winner in each race! Evidently, some of the boats had a better day out than others, with a couple of curious spinnaker arrangements spotted on the course, and a small amount of makeshift sail repair happening too.

Results from heat seven are:

After this heat, the series results are still very close, with only two points between first, second and third on championship results, and second places at equal points for both championship and consistency:

Results for Metro Series heat 6

On the 8th of February, the fleet returned to Royal Perth Yacht Club for heat six of the Metro Series, held as the Max Hayes Memorial trophy.

Despite the forecast predictions for a consistent south-westerly, the winds during the race were quite variable, with small irregular shifts keeping the fleet on their toes. Apparently the 9.2s were a little too keen to get going, with the start boat issuing a general recall. The re-start went smoothly though, Elusive and Farrlap making an early break and staying out in front of the fleet for the remainder of the race.

The fleet started the new year with Metro Heat 5 on the 18th of January, hosted by Royal Freshwater Bay Yacht Club.

A lull in the wind just before the start had some skippers and crews rethinking their sail choices, however the sea breeze promptly roared in, giving us ideal conditions to head off racing.

Itinerant stormed out to an immediate lead, which she kept throughout the race, coming home first and fastest. Lionheart followed closely all afternoon but was unable to catch them, coming in second, with Elusive placing third.

Thanks to RFBYC for hosting us.

Results for Metro Series heat 4

The final Metro Series heat of 2019 was held on the 14th of December back at Royal Perth Yacht Club.

Yet again, the forecast conditions did not eventuate, with a strengthening South-Westerly sea breeze providing some relief from the heat.

Rounding the top mark just ahead of Itinerant, The Black Smoke kept her lead throughout the race, kept honest by Farrlap chasing close behind right up to the finish line.

The Black Smoke was first and fastest, with Frenzy second and Farrlap third. In an excellent recovery from being OCS, Elusive finished 1 second off third place – well done.

For those following, that makes 4 different line honours winners from the 4 races of this season!

On the 23 November, the fleet was back at South of Perth Yacht Club for Heat 3 of the Metro Series.

In a welcome change from the previous metro race, our usual summer sailing conditions had returned, and the fleet battled in a consistent South-West breeze all afternoon.

Farrlap showed us all the way, taking out second and fastest, with The Black Smoke coming first and Elusive third on handicap.

The conditions resulted in a few equipment breakages and some crew bumps and scrapes, so well done to everyone – a great race!

Results for metro series heat 2

Heat 2 of the Metro series was held at South of Perth Yacht Club on the 9th of November.

The warm conditions and a mid race wind change from North-East to a stronger North-West kept all crews on their toes.

Congratulations to Igawa on taking line honours and The Black Smoke for first on handicap.

Thanks to SoPYC for hosting, and we’ll see you all again this Saturday.

Results for metro series heat 1

The first heat of the new 2019/2020 Farr 9.2 metro series took place on the 12th of October, as part of the Opening Day celebrations at Royal Perth Yacht Club. Some competitors were a little too eager for the season to get going, with a tightly contested start line and lots of close crossings throughout the fleet.

Well done to Lionheart, taking first and fastest and thanks as always to RPYC for hosting us.
